Heerlijk Hoorspel (Gift Idea n2)

Few days ago I got a mail asking me if I wanted to receive 'Heerlijk Hoorspel'
As somewhere mentioned in a disclaimer on this site, I don't mind people sending marketing stuff. As long as they respect my 'If I don't like it I'll neglect it' warning.
I have neglected some stuff in the past.

But not this one! Nono!
I received 'Wilde Zwanen' yesterday. I intended to put it away for my littl' bro's christmas.
That was until I decided to check it out first.
Imagine this: 4 people (roommates, my love and me) sitting in our living room at 12pm, listening to Hans Christian Andersen, told by Warre Borgmans.
First C. was making fun at me 'You're actually dancing to this' but minutes later, when I said I was going to buy this for a bunch of other kids and adults, she looked at me saying 'I want it too...'
It is sooooo crazy cool, I really am going to buy it for that whole bunch of people, it's the perfect christmas present.
Even for adults (with a kid's mind that is ;) )

Some details:
Warre Borgmans tells the story, Peter Van de Veire is a dead DJ, Gene Bervoets is a bishop, Frank Focketeyn a ghost, and here are many more.
It takes (unfortunately not more than) an hour and is split in 3 pieces, making it perfect for a bed time story, but also for a silent sunday afternoon (when combined with the online games)
It fits in the cd player of your car, shortening your drive to grandmom, and will not bother you to listen along.
Why? Because it's crazy cool, features some pipikaka sing-a-long-songs, and has some hidden 'you have to know' items that your children won't get but will make you smile.
At 20 euro it's a bargain: you receive a cd, a little booklet with the original story, and the adapted one, with beautiful graphics.

I am totally in love with it. (And almost running to the shop for the other one they released)

You can check out the website for some video and audio. (But at the time writing, something seems wrong with that.)
